Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 Fresh oysters, shucked
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 Eggs, beaten
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 Lemon wedges (for serving)
- Olive oil spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly grease the parchment with olive oil spray to prevent sticking.
Prepare a dredging station with three shallow bowls: one with the flour, one with the beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the shucked oysters dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Dredge each oyster first in the flour, shaking off any excess, then dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it thoroughly in the panko breadcrumb mixture. Press gently to help the coating adhere.
Place the coated oysters onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart.
Lightly spray the tops of the oysters with olive oil to help them crisp up during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the oysters are golden brown and crisp. Rotate the baking sheet halfway through for even cooking.
Remove the oysters from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm with lemon wedges on the side for a bright, tangy flavor.
